i think this is a tricky question if you think about it.
is science important or .. religon ? why tho .. ? Religon helps make people safer . It help you to become a better person. Religon is mainly about beliefs and how to become a better person . . . the problem is . . did anyone prove that gods existed ? etc .. Science helps people to be safe. Science tell us what to aware of. Without science, we wouldnt know where we are, what is safe? .. such as planets or universe ..... etc .. if you think carefully, it could be tricky, you dont know which one is " more " important do you people understand what i'm saiding ? just think bout it. tell me what you think ? ![]() |

Look, I understand what you're saying and I'm telling YOU that just because you and the rest of the world decided that science wins, etc., that argument is never going to work with people who are religious, so why even bother trying? I didn't realize you were arguing that scientific thought is futile in the course of convincing the faithful. I thought you were proposing some sort of strange fundamental stalemate between faith and reason - as if faith had any merit whatsoever. But, now that I do realize your point, I'll have to respectfully disagree. "The argument" has numerous uses and is surely worth "trying." You just have to look at it from a different angle. But, as for the narrow angle you seem to be deploying here: Yes, science can "work with people who are religious." I was once religious. I know many other people who were once religious - they no longer are. This is thanks, in large, to scientific thought. So, you're wrong. Further, I find a great deal of offense in the idea you're positing. Are you encouraging ignorance or do you just have a great deal of sympathy towards bliss? |
